@BenDinnery: Silva on Richarlison: "We need to manage him if we feel he's too tired. He doesn’t look tired but we cannot expect a player with his skills to play at a high level all the time, it is not possible. We need to take care of him, as he’s 20 years old." #watfordfc

Fook that! He was going to be my Ramsey replacement. Speaking of whom, any concrete news on his injury?

I can't wait to have Daniels and Duffy subbing in this week with their respective fixtures...

He's only 20 and no European football, **** does he need a rest for

Conte considers rotation: "A lot of players are playing a lot of games - that means someone is a bit tired. I have to find the best solution and not to lose the balance." #CFC

Saints boss Mauricio Pellegrino confirms that #Cedric has resumed full training ahead of LCFC

Sean Dyche says Matt #Lowton is close but the defender is “improbable” for a return against Stoke on Tuesday night. Late decision to be taken on Ben #Mee.

At his pre-match press conference, ahead of Tuesday’s home match against Watford, Roy Hodgson announced that Mamadou #Sakho is set for a period out of action with the injury sustained in Saturday’s draw.

Wagué could return to the matchday squad as #Britos and #Feminía are struggling to make the match at Selhurst Park. "We’ll try with them," said Silva. "Miguel is more difficult to play. Kiko is a matter of days. His injury is nothing special, he has some fatigue as well"

Aaron #Ramsey looks set for another spell on the sidelines after Arsene Wenger confirmed the Wales international picked up a hamstring injury during the 1-1 draw with Southampton.

DW: “ #vanLaParra will be back in the squad. Before his suspension he made some big steps offensively and defensively. He has something to prove.” #htafc (AT)

Silva on #Richarlison: "We need to manage him if we feel he's too tired. He doesn’t look tired but we cannot expect a player with his skills to play at a high level all the time, it is not possible. We need to take care of him, as he’s 20 years old."

Thanks for summarising all that...even if it makes for rather painful reading

Lots of reports that morata is out tomorrow.

He is reaching Diego Costa levels of annoyance now
Probably come back Saturday and get his fifth booking

Morata seems to be gonzo for the Huddersfield game if you believe Conte. Probably my excuse to squeeze Hazard in somehow.

Aguero back for a hit?

Wondering how close Coleman is to a return

Hasn’t even got a run with u23’s yet.

I’d guess another 4 weeks before he’s in contention for a place on the bench.

Edit - and with them having Kenny, Holgate, and to a lesser extent Martina, I doubt they will in any way rush him back.

Alonso nailed on to be benched tomorrow

Unlikely IMO.

Didn't play CL. Played 54 minutes on Saturday as he'd gotten booked.

There's always a chance, but I think Alonso got his rest.

At least I’ll get Calvert-Lewin off the bench with no Morata.

A full, playing squad is so important at this time of year.

Don't, I have him and he's wrecking both my head and team.

Ramsey and Mustafi confirmed out. No word on future Ramsey games though.

Morata 0% on fpl

IMO, we must all remember something.

outside of Klopp and Guardiola's strikers, there isn't that much rotation that happens. we struggle with this every year, and second guess who will be rested and who won't. most teams play the majority of their best team as often as possible.

the Carabao Cup will give a lot of players their rest next week.

there generally just isn't that much rotation. any changes in the PL are usually due to injury.

just get your 14 or 15 players who are regular starters, play the best team you can for the fixtures on that GW, and don't worry.

Honestly. Outside of Klopp's madness and Guardiola's strikers, it's generally predictable enough. Hazard missing that game last week was a complete anomaly IMO, because Alonso had played the same amount of games and didn't get a rest. Same with Morata.

Now, I could look a fool over the next 2 evenings when they all rotate like mad. But it really doesn't happen that often, even over Christmas.

Not really
Liverpool defence , Spurs defence , United central defenders, Chelsea defence , , richarlson going to miss a game at least , Austin the same , Bournemouth strikers etc etc
There will be rotation and a full squad and a bit of luck will be needed

Wenger says Ramsey will be out for a "short period". Whatever that means.

Almost every player will be rotated once over the Christmas break IMO. You just have to roll with it and hope no more than 2/3 of your players will be rotated at the same time.

Attacking midfielders and forwards are the most at risk, and they're the ones we invest most in

Who would slot in for him? Probably to be avoided, but wondering if there might be some short term value.

Sounds like there will be carnage tonight, similar to last midweek.

Wilshere might if he's fit. IF.

Well I'd reorganise the whole attack to get Walcott in that team :P:confused:

Little chance of that happening though.

Possibly a reshuffle with iwobi coming in ?

@BenDinnery: "Rojo is a brave guy. I don't know - let's see if he can be ready for the match. but if he's not, we have other alternatives to play."

Referenced Phil Jones. "The injury is behind [him] and hopefully he can stay fit." #MUFC

Alder out until February. Probably best avoiding Spurs defenders 'til then

Benitez: “Jamaal Lascelles was nearly there (on Saturday). Having players with character and personality when things aren’t going wrong is good. I haven’t picked the team yet”. https://t.co/cewGfx4I3Z

@BenPearceSpurs: #thfc Pochettino says Erik Lamela has a chance of starting tomorrow: "“Maybe. I still haven’t decided. I am going to decide today for tomorrow. But yes, he has a chance maybe to play from the start against Brighton tomorrow.”
